Question
On a Service Protractor on the other edge, there are two numbers each the back bearing of the other. One number will be between 0 - 3200, the other between 3200 - 6400. If you are heading in an easterly direction from your location which one of the following ranges will your bearing fall into.*1 point0 - 3200 mils3200 - 6400 mils
Solution
Your bearing will fall into the 0 - 3200 mils range. This is because the 0 - 3200 mils range represents the bearings from North (0 or 6400 mils) through East (1600 mils) to South (3200 mils). Since you are heading in an easterly direction, your bearing will be around 1600 mils, which is within the 0 - 3200 mils range.
